In SC, South Carolina requires Residential Builders Commission registration for residential specialty work over $500. Ask a Greenville locksmith for ID and a written quote before work starts.

Should I rekey or replace locks after moving to Greenville?

Rekeying is usually cheaper than replacing when the hardware is sound; a Greenville locksmith visit for either typically starts around $90-$225.

Why do locks stick in Greenville winters?

When Greenville lows reach 31F, moisture inside a cylinder can freeze and metal parts contract, so a lock that turns stiffly in cold weather often needs graphite lubricant rather than replacement.

Do Greenville summers affect door locks?

Doors swell and frames shift in heat, so with highs near 89F a Greenville deadbolt that only binds in summer usually means a strike plate needs adjusting.

How do I avoid locksmith scams in Greenville?

Get a firm quote on the phone, confirm the business name when the tech arrives, and be wary of a Greenville lockout quote far below the typical $90-$225.
